Fox Signing Requester (signingService-FoxSigningRequester)
This component is a client to the Fox Signing Transport and provides a parent component with the ability to make requests to onboard with the Signing Service and to renew certificates.
It is not possible to drop an instance of the Fox Signing Requester onto any arbitrary component as some code is required to support the interaction between the component and the requester.
